    The name says it all ns my buying experience of my ns160 was really excellent i purchased in the month of december so i had got Christmas offer as insurance free for 2 years i had purchased it on dec 2018 i got my vehicle delivered a day before i was travelling to mumbai after getting it delivered from showroom had only done few kms and the next day i went for a 3 weeks vacation to mumbai i really ride enjoyed riding my vehicle after my vacation its a fully fun packed vehicle everyone will love it the way he looks the ns 160 looks alike like his elder siblings ns 200 the people who looks into a vehicle knows it has got smaller tyres smaller forks smaller disk brakes and yellow instrument cluster its a oil cooled twin spark dtsi engine. Their is no heating issue in this vehicle coming to servicing its has cheaper parts as compared to rivals need to change fork oil every 10000kms carburetor cleaning every 25000kms as all knows bajaj mainly had a chain slagness issue but by doing proper lubrication it last 25000kms for my vehicle i always use 3m or motul chain lubes or from company oks lube i had done about 38000kms in 2 years which included only long rides such as chennai to trivandrum i did about 15 times and chennai to thirupathi chennai to pondicherry chennai to bangalore trivandrum to malapuram etc etc pros: handling looks night headlight visibility shock aborbers illuminated switches telescopic frame cons: service quality is poor maintenance for chain and bearings clutch life about 30000kms only rusting in saree guard and other parts rear view mirrors lack view i prefer liquimoly 20w50 for my bike and motul chain lube always use genuine parts other than chain lube and oil if u love reving to high use liquimoly shooters oils and addictive else use motul 20w50 semi synthetic oil.

    Performance and handling are super. The exterior looks are good and best bike. Major missing gear indicator, Led lights, fully loaded digital instrument cluster, Bluetooth connectivity, dual-channel Abs.
    But performance-wise Bike was super.
    And I love my Bike very much. Worth it for the money. Best 160cc bike.

  • Awesome bike

    Dinesh

    The killer look it has with that design attracted me first. Compared to its rivals, the power delivery is good and delivers a decent mileage at the same time. Servicing doesn't cost much. Can be used for daily commute, tours, leisure rides. Bajaj should have provided 140/90 tyre section which it's rivals have.

  • its a gem

    6 years ago


    Ganesh

    we got the bike late we have to book and wait even though we are ready cash we got after 16 days
    riding is based on rider mode its smooth and power but the height and the handle bar turn make the city riding slightly hard.
    i have grey colour its damn look of super bike even i park outside all get in to nearby and make a look on it .must put tank cover to so looks like pakaa sporty
    riding in city and highways you can feel the bike but need some improve in breaking system
    mileage based on the riding when i drag it gave me 33kmpl in city if u make proper gear shift and make a smooth ride below 45 to 56 speed it gave 49 to 53 kmpl in city...

  • Best bike in its class

    2 years ago


    Param Sehgal

    While searching for a bike to buy , i was in a dillema whether to buy this or the rtr 160 4v .
    Took a test ride of both back to back . I was very much impressed by the handling of the pulsar. Bought it same day and have been riding it everyday .
    The best thing about pulsar is the heritage of stunts as well as racing that it has, being the first indigenous sports bike in India .
    The handling is much better than the competitors. Also has a better power band than most of the competitors. Company claims a top speed of 110 kmph as indicated by the speedometer, but can easily go upto 125 km/h as indicated. Has a good mileage for the performance that it has. Been getting a consistent 40-45 km/l in city and about 50-55 on highway.
    Servicing and after sales support is much better than what tvs provides. I also own a rr310 but i am not happy with the after sales support of tvs, even ordering a spare takes weeks.
    The ride height as well as reachability is good for short riders. The pedal placement is also comfortable for long journeys. The only main issue is that the under belly exhaust eats up the clearance but overall it is an all round good sports bike. The sale numbers speak for itself, being the best selling bike in its class.
    I will definitely recommend this for anyone who wants a sportsbike under 1.40 lakhs.

    Tips for other riders

    Use both front and rear brakes everytime. This prevents the disks from heating up and also prevent brake fail. Use the same specification of oil as recommended by the company. Always check tyre pressures and keep them in recommended range.

    Performance and handling are super. The exterior looks are good and best bike. Major missing gear indicator, Led lights, fully loaded digital instrument cluster, Bluetooth connectivity, dual-channel Abs.
    But performance-wise Bike was super.
    And I love my Bike very much. Worth it for the money. Best 160cc bike.

    The killer look it has with that design attracted me first. Compared to its rivals, the power delivery is good and delivers a decent mileage at the same time. Servicing doesn't cost much. Can be used for daily commute, tours, leisure rides. Bajaj should have provided 140/90 tyre section which it's rivals have.

    we got the bike late we have to book and wait even though we are ready cash we got after 16 days
    riding is based on rider mode its smooth and power but the height and the handle bar turn make the city riding slightly hard.
    i have grey colour its damn look of super bike even i park outside all get in to nearby and make a look on it .must put tank cover to so looks like pakaa sporty
    riding in city and highways you can feel the bike but need some improve in breaking system
    mileage based on the riding when i drag it gave me 33kmpl in city if u make proper gear shift and make a smooth ride below 45 to 56 speed it gave 49 to 53 kmpl in city...

  • Best bike in its class

    Param Sehgal

    While searching for a bike to buy , i was in a dillema whether to buy this or the rtr 160 4v .
    Took a test ride of both back to back . I was very much impressed by the handling of the pulsar. Bought it same day and have been riding it everyday .
    The best thing about pulsar is the heritage of stunts as well as racing that it has, being the first indigenous sports bike in India .
    The handling is much better than the competitors. Also has a better power band than most of the competitors. Company claims a top speed of 110 kmph as indicated by the speedometer, but can easily go upto 125 km/h as indicated. Has a good mileage for the performance that it has. Been getting a consistent 40-45 km/l in city and about 50-55 on highway.
    Servicing and after sales support is much better than what tvs provides. I also own a rr310 but i am not happy with the after sales support of tvs, even ordering a spare takes weeks.
    The ride height as well as reachability is good for short riders. The pedal placement is also comfortable for long journeys. The only main issue is that the under belly exhaust eats up the clearance but overall it is an all round good sports bike. The sale numbers speak for itself, being the best selling bike in its class.
    I will definitely recommend this for anyone who wants a sportsbike under 1.40 lakhs.

    Use both front and rear brakes everytime. This prevents the disks from heating up and also prevent brake fail. Use the same specification of oil as recommended by the company. Always check tyre pressures and keep them in recommended range.

    Gatik Satyajit Patil

    The name says it all ns my buying experience of my ns160 was really excellent i purchased in the month of december so i had got Christmas offer as insurance free for 2 years i had purchased it on dec 2018 i got my vehicle delivered a day before i was travelling to mumbai after getting it delivered from showroom had only done few kms and the next day i went for a 3 weeks vacation to mumbai i really ride enjoyed riding my vehicle after my vacation its a fully fun packed vehicle everyone will love it the way he looks the ns 160 looks alike like his elder siblings ns 200 the people who looks into a vehicle knows it has got smaller tyres smaller forks smaller disk brakes and yellow instrument cluster its a oil cooled twin spark dtsi engine. Their is no heating issue in this vehicle coming to servicing its has cheaper parts as compared to rivals need to change fork oil every 10000kms carburetor cleaning every 25000kms as all knows bajaj mainly had a chain slagness issue but by doing proper lubrication it last 25000kms for my vehicle i always use 3m or motul chain lubes or from company oks lube i had done about 38000kms in 2 years which included only long rides such as chennai to trivandrum i did about 15 times and chennai to thirupathi chennai to pondicherry chennai to bangalore trivandrum to malapuram etc etc pros: handling looks night headlight visibility shock aborbers illuminated switches telescopic frame cons: service quality is poor maintenance for chain and bearings clutch life about 30000kms only rusting in saree guard and other parts rear view mirrors lack view i prefer liquimoly 20w50 for my bike and motul chain lube always use genuine parts other than chain lube and oil if u love reving to high use liquimoly shooters oils and addictive else use motul 20w50 semi synthetic oil.
